I have followed the instructions described in this link http://www.everybus.com/dworkin/vgon_jalousie/ to replace my driver side slider with a jalousie out of a 73 westy but something does not jive. The two vertical pieces that are 3/4" wide do not seam to accomodate the 1/4" filler piece that is supposed to be sandwiched between them. The 1/4" filler piece protrudes out most of the way. It looks like the 3/4" pieces should be 1" wide to be able to accomodate the filler piece. HAs anybody who has done this run into the same problem? I don't have my slider out and dont plan on taking it out for a while, but does anyone know the measurments of the slider on the driver side? Is it in fact 42 3/8" X 16 3/4" as these instruction say? BTW the router and tablesaw worked great at cutting the aluminium. Thanks Pascal |
